Abstract:
The authors assess the acoustic method for investigation of the biomechanical properties of ocular tissues. Relationship between the rate of propagation of acoustic surface waves and different physical conditions and relations with the scleral structure were studied on specially designed models. The detected regularities permit the authors recommend the method of life time assessment of biomechanical properties for clinical ophthalmology as an additional diagnostic method for objective assessment of the elastic properties of ocular tissues.
